12

Restating the Declaration by Local Board Members Pursuant to Schedule 7, Clause 14, of the Local Government Act 2002

 

The declarations made by three local board members of the Manurewa Local Board differed slightly from the set Local Government Act 2002 wording.  The declarations unintentionally omitted the phrase “I declare” – instead the declarations used the phrase “I swear on the Holy Bible”.  For the avoidance of doubt, the three local board members made the oral and written declaration using the set Local Government Act 2002 wording. 

 

Angela Dalton and Angela Cunningham-Marino restated their declarations at the 14 November 2013 Manurewa Local Board meeting, however, Simeon Brown was an apology for that meeting.  Simeon Brown restated his declaration at the 12 December 2013 Manurewa Local Board meeting.

 

The Chairperson attested the declaration.
